: festival preparations; roam from room to room, inspecting, commenting, saying ‘hello’; magazine mosaics of a kabuki actor, Vincent Van Gogh’s sunflowers Did you know he cut his ear off?, and a Magritte; an 1-nensei student approaches me with his file, asking me every question in the book; “Are you from America?” “What’s your favorite subject?”; even with his limited English we manage to find out a lot about each other, he likes science and finds English difficult but interesting; “English… study… hard… but… interesting.” Me too, I tell him. Studying Japanese is hard for me but I think it’s very interesting. We’re the same. And he like this analogy.
